Happy Monday ya'll - if you haven't already done it, I'd shore appursheeeate a vote for MerciBlahBlah in Circle of Mom's contest. Don't forget - you can vote once a day until January 23, and I'd LOVE to come out in the top 25. Thank ye kindly, and now, on to nonsense.

Holy schnikes - I got possibly the world's most unflattering sequin pants this weekend from Zara. What's that you say? There are people who possibly find ANY sequin pants to be the most unflattering pants in the world? I can assure you, they haven't seen THESE particular sequin pants.

I wasn't sure when I bought them I would like them, after after trying them on, holy shitballs, were they bad. They were gold sequin harem pants, with pockets that hung off the sides like separate entities from the rest of the pants.

It was almost as if the pockets knew exactly how bad the rest of the pants were, and were trying to escape.

I hate saying such things about Zara, as much as I love Zara, and I'm sure maybe the biggest reason they looked SOOOOO horrific was me. I know as a shortie I can't get away with everything, and WOW, those pants proved that in spades. Lucky for YOU, you will not be subjected to them in a future post. They are packed up and safely on their merry, MC Hammer way back to Zara, where someone else can enjoy them. Goodbye sequins, my old friennnnnd....P.S.Check out some fabulous ladies at Monday Mingle and Visible Monday.Jacket: Rock & Republic for Kohl'sPlaid shirt: Thrifted (but DIYd by little old me)Tee: The Garment DistrictPants: Love CultureBoots: TargetMerci!Shan

As bad as that really depressing moment is (the one where you really understand that the item must go back) ... please remember how bad things would be if you didn't have the taste to get to that moment! We all know women that never quite manage it. You look completely beautiful in the cobalt tux ... which you won't have to return!Have a much better 2013 than last year!
